From Council Offices to Top Groomed Dogs!

August 08, 2016

Ryder & Dutton first met with Heather, proprietor of Targamar Dog Groomers Salon, back in October 2015 when Heather was first embarking on her search for commercial premises for her new business venture.

Heather wanted to set up a Dog Groomers and so we took Heather to see several premises that may suit her needs.

After several viewings of commercial properties round Shaw there was one property that stood out which was at 23 High Street. A key challenge was the change needed in planning. We discussed what was required in order to submit an application for the proposed change of use from offices to a dog grooming salon at ground floor and a residential accommodation at first and second floor level.

The property was previously utilised as the Shaw & Crompton Parish Council offices and was tired and in need of creative transformation.

Verity from our Commercial Department began negotiations between the sellers and proposed purchasers negotiating a mutually agreeable price subject to contract and the relevant planning approval.

Verity kept all parties informed every step of the way, particularly liaising with solicitors and reverting back to both parties with any progress in order to help speed up the transaction resulting in exchange and completion on 11th March 2016. Only 6 months after the initial enquiry!

We kept in touch with Heather and followed her progress with local Architect Whittaker Design throughout the Planning process. As you can see the transformation has been incredible!

We were then fortunate enough to be invited along to Targamar's open evening on Friday 1st July 2016.

Verity said, "I am particularly impressed with the smart shop frontage and how much this has improved the building's exterior, it looked like a completely different property! I was equally impressed with the quality of the interior decor and equipment. It's apparent that a lot of hard work over the past few months has definitely paid off and the end result is superb"
